Regression in cmake-3.13.3 with missing source directory

Good morning

Scalapack [1] fails to build on FreeBSD [2] with cmake-3.13.3, and works all things being the same with 3.13.2.

I suspect the change [3] which made source/binary directories required. A possible fix for scalapack is in its CMAKE/FortranMangling.cmake to append the value it passes as WORKING_DIRECTORY as additional argument to the called cmake (line 21).

 17    # Configure: 
 18     EXECUTE_PROCESS(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND}  
 19          "-DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=${CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER}"
 20          "-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=${CMAKE_C_COMPILER}"
 21          "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/BLACS/INSTALL"
 22         WORKING_DIRECTORY ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/BLACS/INSTALL/        
 23         RESULT_VARIABLE RESVAR OUTPUT_VARIABLE LOG1 ERROR_VARIABLE LOG1
 24     )
